Chapter 269: Married Life (1)
“What do you want?” she said with a bit of an edge to her voice.
Bo Yan thought for a moment, reining in his emotions, and quickly apologized with sincerity, “Sorry, I just… was a little offensive. I didn’t actually mean that. I was…”
“So you think I’m not pretty and have a bad figure?”
“Uh… no, that’s not it.” Bo Yan shook his head.
“So, you just don’t want to sleep with me?” She had just asked these three questions, after all. Since he agreed with the first two, it must be the third one that was the problem.
It wasn’t that, it must be that she had misunderstood him.
“I…” Bo Yan hadn’t expected her to be so direct, and for a moment, he didn’t know how to respond. He hesitated for quite a while before nodding, “I indeed didn’t mean that.”
To compliment her looks and figure, to say he wanted to sleep with her one moment and then become cold the next. Because he didn’t want to take responsibility.
How is it that he seemed even worse now!
“Alright, I get it. You can get lost now!” Xia Siyu said, her expression darkening, as she slammed the door shut.
With a loud “bang,” Bo Yan, who was just stepping forward and had something else to say, was nearly hit in the nose by the door that Xia Siyu slammed.
Locked out, Bo Yan wanted to explain, but he feared that the more he tried, the worse it would get, and he didn’t know how to persist.
He hesitated beside the door for a long time, but in the end, he turned around, withdrew, and sullenly returned to his own room.
Xia Siyu was just by the door, and hearing him go back to his room made her even angrier.
She walked two steps into the room, threw herself onto the big bed, buried her head in the pillow, and after a good while, she muttered, “Bo Yan, you big pervert, you big jerk!”
Xia Siyu couldn’t sleep.
She was a bit upset. It was she who had been teased by Bo Yan, and he didn’t even acknowledge it afterwards, but why was she the one suffering from insomnia today?
Especially since when Bo Yan said he wanted to sleep with her, she was very angry. Of course, what woman wouldn’t be upset if she heard something like that out of the blue, and they weren’t even in the throes of passionate love.
But she was even more upset when Bo Yan denied it afterward. He didn’t just deny it; he offered an explanation and said, “That’s not what I meant!”
This felt much more infuriating than a rejected confession, okay?
Moreover, Bo Yan had admitted that she was pretty and had a good figure, but after deep contemplation, he said he didn’t want to be close to her. Wasn’t he basically saying her head was empty, and despite a pretty face, she wasn’t really that charming?
Even if that were true, he shouldn’t have said it out loud!
Xia Siyu flipped over, her face toward the ceiling, staring at the crystal lamp above, so frustrated that she was metaphorically pedaling a bike furiously into the void.
She wanted to go and argue with him, and with a swift move, jumped agilely out of bed, barefoot, and rushed to the door to open it. But then she thought of Bo Yan’s smug face, guessing that if she hurried over, she might just be humiliated by a few of his nonchalant remarks.
Although Bo Yan was no longer as aloof as he was at first, an offhand remark from him was still enough to make someone explode with rage.
Damn it, how did she even fall for this guy.
When they were planning to get married, she should’ve outright refused.
It was she who was blind, dazzled by his good looks, which led her to repeatedly misjudge him. Last night, when she touched his abs, she even got a little carried away. Bo Yan probably didn’t know how to taunt her for that!
She should have quickly found another man, a man a hundred times better than him, and proudly walked past him, just to infuriate him!
After tossing and turning all night, it wasn’t until early the next morning that she finally dozed off in a daze. When she woke up, Bo Yan was there too.
